New Delhi, July 23: Sports broadcaster ESPN
today said it has signed a nationwide deal with multi-system
operator Hathway for carrying its new channel Star Cricket,
which is telecasting the ongoing India-England series.
The broadcaster had already signed up with
cable operators, including Incable and Siticable, and DTH
service providers TataSky and Dish TV.
"Within three weeks of the launch, the new
channel Star Cricket has been able to garner national
footprint," ESPN Software India Pvt Ltd Vice-President Rajesh
Kaul said in a statement.
ESPN has priced Star Cricket at Rs 28 a
month, which was the bone of contention among the sports
broadcaster, cable operators and DTH service providers.
